Tips (ಸಲಹೆ):
 * Add little more salt if it oozes out more water. Make sure that the jackfruit slices are just immersed in brine. Remove excess water.
 * Salt should not be more or less. If less, jackfruit slices will not last longer. If more, slices will be too salty and it takes longer time to remove it before cooking and it wont be that tasty
 * This can be preserved for 1-2 years without refrigeration. Before using it every time, soak it in water for 1-4 hrs to remove the extra Salt
 * After using the brined Jackfruits, cover the remaining Jackfruits with the stones, close the lid tightly & store it as before

 * ಹಲಸಿನಕಾಯಿ ತೊಳೆಯಲ್ಲಿ ತುಂಬಾ ನೀರು ಎದ್ದಿದ್ದರೆ, ಉಪ್ಪು ಸ್ವಲ್ಪ ಹೆಚ್ಚು ಹಾಕಿ. ತೊಳೆಯು ಸಂಪೂರ್ಣವಾಗಿ ಮುಳುಗಿರುವಷ್ಟು ನೀರನ್ನು ಇರಿಸಿ, ಮಿಕ್ಕಿರುವ ನೀರನ್ನು ಹೊರ ಚೆಲ್ಲಿ.
 * ಉಪ್ಪು ಕಡಿಮೆಯಾದರೆ ತೊಳೆಗಳು ಬೇಗನೆ ಹಾಳಾಗುತ್ತದೆ ಹಾಗು ಉಪ್ಪು ತುಂಬಾ ಹೆಚ್ಚಾದರೂ, ಉಪ್ಪನ್ನು ಬಿಡಿಸಲು ತುಂಬಾ ಸಮಯ ನೀರಿನಲ್ಲಿ ಹಾಕಿಡಬೇಕಾಗುತ್ತದೆ. ಆಗ ತೊಳೆಗಳ ಹುಳಿಯೂ ಬಿಟ್ಟು ಅಷ್ಟು ರುಚಿಯೆನಿಸುವುದಿಲ್ಲ
 * ಇದನ್ನು 1-2 ವರ್ಷ ಫ್ರಿಡ್ಜಿನಲ್ಲಿ ಇಡದೇ ಉಪಯೋಗಿಸಬಹುದು. ಉಪಯೋಗಿಸುವ ಮೊದಲು ಹೆಚ್ಚಿನ ಉಪ್ಪನ್ನು ತೆಗೆಯಲು ಪ್ರತಿ ಸಲ, 1-4 ಗಂಟೆ ನೀರಿನಲ್ಲಿ ನೆನೆ ಹಾಕಿ
 * ಉಪ್ಪು ನೀರು ತೊಳೆಗಳನ್ನು ತೆಗೆದ ಮೇಲೆ, ಉಳಿದ ತೊಳೆಗಳನ್ನು ಕಲ್ಲಿನಿಂದ ಮುಚ್ಚಿ, ಮುಚ್ಚಳವನ್ನು ಸರಿಯಾಗಿ ಹಾಕಿ, ಮೊದಲಿನಂತೆ ತೆಗೆದಿಡಿ

 * ಗುಣಮಟ್ಟದ ಅಕ್ಕಿಯನ್ನು ಉಪಯೋಗಿಸಿ  
 * ನುಣ್ಣಗೆ ರುಬ್ಬಿದ ಅಕ್ಕಿ ಹಿಟ್ಟನ್ನೇ ಬಳಸಿ
 * ಅಕ್ಕಿ ಹಿಟ್ಟಿನ ಸ್ಥಿರತೆ ವಿಡಿಯೋದಲ್ಲಿ ತೋರಿಸಿದ ಹಾಗೆ, ಮೇಲಿನಿಂದ ಕೆಳಗೆ ಹಾಕುವಾಗ ನೂಲಿನಂತೆ ಬರಲಿ. ಹಿಟ್ಟು ತುಂಬಾ ದಪ್ಪಗಿದ್ದರೆ ಕಡುಬು ಗಟ್ಟಿಯಾಗುತ್ತದೆ ಹಾಗೂ ತುಂಬಾ ತೆಳ್ಳಗಿದ್ದರೆ ಕಡುಬು ಮೆತ್ತಗಾಗಿ ಬಾಳೆ ಎಲೆಗೆ ಅಂಟಿಕೊಳ್ಳುತ್ತದೆ
 * ಸಣ್ಣಗೆ ತುರಿದ ತೆಂಗಿನಕಾಯಿಯನ್ನೇ ಬಳಸಿ, ಮಿಕ್ಸಿಗೆ ಹಾಕಿ ಕ್ರಶ್ ಮಾಡಿದ ತುರಿ ಅಷ್ಟೊಂದು ರುಚಿಯಾಗುವುದಿಲ್ಲ
 * ಹಸಿ ತೆಂಗಿನಕಾಯಿಯ ಬಿಳಿಯ ಭಾಗವನ್ನು ಉಪಯೋಗಿಸಿ

* ಕಡುಬುಗಳನ್ನು ಬೇಯಲು ಇಡುವಾಗ, ವಿಡಿಯೋದಲ್ಲಿ ತೋರಿಸಿದಂತೆ ಅಡ್ಡವಾಗಿ ಇಟ್ಟು ಸ್ವಲ್ಪ ಗಾಳಿಯಾಡುವಂತಿರಲಿ, ಇಲ್ಲದಿದ್ದರೆ ತಳ ಭಾಗದ ಕಡುಬುಗಳು ಚೆನ್ನಾಗಿ ಬೇಯುವುದಿಲ್ಲ
